Wraps. Condition: Good. Side folding wraps. 20 pp., including covers. A few poorly reproduced photos throughout. A supplement to Loaded, a zine style underground publication, produced at UC Santa Cruz. The Loaded Collective appears to have been a group of students at the University of California, Santa Cruz, perhaps also affiliated with student socialist organizations on the same campus. This includes Barbara Zheutlin, Stephanie Graham, Jeff Snyder, Mike Fox, Mike Rotkin, Bruce Dancis, Lorna Hall, and Vicki Bolam, according to Santa Cruz Museum of Art and History archive. This supplement looks at the "triad" of the defense industry, universities and the land development industries in California. The essay asserts that California's economy is based on death and destruction through the development and building of military weapons (and the Vietnam War). The authors cite evidence that points to Santa Cruz becoming part of this complex. GOOD condition. Minor toning, soiling and staining to the covers. Minor wrinkling, creasing and edgewear.
